There's a few different ways to go about including this information as part of the alert. The simplest way would be to include the database name as part of the component name, or easier still would be to append the database name to the application name itself.

Yes, the agent can operate in this mode and I've done it myself a time or two, but I much prefer agent initiated mode for this configuration since it requires only a single port forwarding rule for all agents, instead of one per-agent. So it's much cleaner and easier to manage centrally. If you have the IP addresses to…

I don't believe that DNS reverse lookup is used for Syslog. It seems like the Orion node name is what is used. Can anyone @ SolarWinds confirm/deny?

Finally, someone who got my joke. Josh, can you give us any teasers/spoilers as to what will be in Orion v8? I'm sure there are some features that have yet to be decided whether they make the final build or not, but can you tell us some of the things that are known to be in Orion v8? quote:Originally posted by…

You will need to add the applications to the group for them to be reflected properly in the group status.

The following threads should help get you pointed in the right direction. * IIS App Pool Status * Application Pool monitoring

I believe the root cause of the issue is that thin APs are not managed nodes in Orion NPM. You may want to configure an advanced alert for your APs a leverage the All Triggered Alerts resource instead of the Nodes with Problems resource. 

This error can occur if OS is running out of non-paged pool. Are you using the /3GB switch on the machine? If so please turn it off and reboot.

This is something we're considering for a future release of SAM. WS-MAN is usually implemented for server configuration change management, but it does have uses in performance & availability monitoring as well. Besides the obvious advantage of not having to install Dell's Server Administrator on your servers, is there any…

Orion NPM 10.1 includes SMTP support for SSL/TLS authentication in the Advanced Alert Manager as pictured below.

The template export to a file process in SAM can be very slow depending upon the total number of templates you have in the system. Can you try waiting upwards of 3-4min and see if the file is automatically downloaded when on that screen? If the download doesn't start before your session expires, please open a case with…

Thanks for sharing . I've logged adding the ${Caption} and $DNS} macros to script monitors as a feature request. It's currently being tracked internally as FB177943.

Andy, this is indicative of the fact that there are too many component monitors within the application template to complete polling within the polling timeout window specified within the application setting. Component monitors that are successful complete in a more timely fashion, while those that fail in error take longer…

SAM does include a Syslog and SNMP Trap Receiver, though alerts for those are configured through those Win32 based application on the Orion server.

Locking this thread as it is a duplicate of the following post. Issue with HTTPS Monitor

How are the servers managed in Orion. It these are Windows servers managed via SNMP the list of processes can be 2 minutes or more behind the CPU alert since Windows only updates its statistics via SNMP every two minutes. I would recommend instead managing the nodes via WMI which does not exhibit this problem. As for…

This message indicates that historical data in SAM tables have not been summarized. Likely because database maintenance hasn't probably executed for several days, or the database maintenance is failing for some reason. Please try to run database manually following the instructions outlined below. If the error message…

Have you seen this thread here?

This is likely something you'll need to write a script to accomplish. I'm not sure I understand the use case exactly. A single process might have many different threads but what most people are generally concerned about is how many of the process are running simultaneously, or for how long each process is running. I…

I think Duke Nukem Forever will be released before Orion 8

I only have one IP interface defined on the switch so I should not need to define a logging source as it only has one to choose from. If you look carefully at the examples above, the same switch, with the same IP address is doing the syslog, only in one of them there seems to be an association with the managed node in…

Have you applied Hotfix 1? * SAM v6.2 Hot Fix 1 is now available

- 1 SAM server (This will have alert central & web console) - 1 NPM server ( this will also have Netflow, Config Manager & IPSLA) - 1 SQL Ent ( NPM & SAM both point to this) - Have poller engines for SAM ( I believe since i do not have unlimited license for NPM I cannot have multiple pollers right ???) I would recommending…

I believe you are looking for metrics that are included in the Exchange 2010 Hub Transport Role Counters (Advanced) template.

The script is executed on the node the agent is deployed on.

The screenshot you posted doesn't provide much context of where you are seeing this error. Please answer the following questions so we can better assist you. * Can you elaborate what component is reporting this error? * Does AppInsight for Exchange populate with any data? * How is the node managed? SNMP/WMI/Agent * Did you…

Yes, the following Application Templates can be used to monitor your SQL instance without using AppInsight for SQL. * SQL Server 2005-2008 Performance (WMI) * SQL Server 2005-2008 Performance (SQL) * SQL Server 2012 Performance (WMI) * SQL Server 2012 Performance (SQL)

To monitor Hyper-V the node must be managed via WMI, not SNMP. If the node is not managed via SNMP then you cannot apply UnDPs to that node.

Yes. You could use either Additional Polling Engines or install an Agent on the endpoints at these remote locations.

The following KB article outlines the steps you need to follow for updating the version of Java used by SAM. * SolarWinds Knowledge Base :: Update the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) SAM uses for JMX.
